Settled quietly on leafy Nilpinna Street - where jacarandas colour the canopy and Burnside's everyday conveniences sit comfortably within arm's reach - this C1949 home opens the door to light-filled living on a generous north-facing parcel built for families, entertainers, and anyone who values room to breathe.
From its picture-perfect frontage, to interiors that subtly pay homage to deco origins, this is a home that balances mid-century beginnings with contemporary flow. Timber floors, moulded ceilings, and picture windows set an inviting tone throughout, wide entry hall unfolding to a grand formal lounge anchored by combustion fireplace.
Accommodation is intelligently zoned. A main bedroom sits proudly at the front, while four additional bedrooms and two family bathrooms disperse across the layout, making sure everyone has a place to retreat and reset.
At the heart, an open-plan living zone anchors the home's social pulse, laden with natural light and lined by walls of glass that blur the edges between indoors and out beautifully. An updated kitchen oversees it all, with a suite of updated appliances and breakfast bar ensuring mealtimes glide seamlessly from weekday chaos to weekend gatherings.
Step outside and the rhythm shifts again. Storybook gardens, veggie beds, a sweep of lawn, and a wide alfresco make it easy to imagine summers spent hosting long lunches that linger late into the evening. There's room to grow, to garden, to play - and to dream about what a future evolution might look like.
Practicality hasn't been overlooked, with solar panels, powered garage, rainwater storage, irrigation, and extensive off-street parking ticking the boxes behind the scenes.
Surrounded by elite schooling options - Burnside Primary, St Peter's Girls, Rostrevor, Pembroke and Norwood International High - plus Burnside Village, Norwood Parade, Magill Estate, Lockwood General and the CBD within an easy commute, the location quietly delivers a lifestyle that balances convenience with calm. And with Second Creek only steps away, there's nature to enjoy as well.
Classic bones, modern living, and a lifestyle address that rewards every chapter – 5 Nilpinna Steet is ready to elevate your next era.
